Last time we went to the botanical gardens we went to the lower car park and ended up running low on time so this trip we went up to the top car park. We bought a parking ticket for the day and headed in with a lot more time. The area was very closed in and was like a giant canopy with paths leading off in different directions.
The little park benches around the area were so lovely to spend some time at as they are so peaceful.
I've got to say one of the best experiences was running down the paths trying to avoid the sprinklers that were on!
These are some odd shaped leaves not sure what kind of tree it is.
The leaves looked quite prickly on this so I got my mum to touch it, turns out they are really soft!
There was quite a bit of water around so I tried some water reflection photos. Let me know what you like most.

Mum's the guinea pig hey?
I did a bushwalk the other day, first time in a long time; really fulfilling. Didn't realise how much I'd enjoy it.
Yeah she didn't seem to mind to much :)
I find quite fun if there's lots of things to see like trees, flowers and shrubs, but if it's plain and mostly aimed around the walking it can be boring.
